Texas Tech Owns A Mississippi School in Second Straight Bowl Game
Last season, interim head coach Sonny Cumbie led the Red Raiders to a Liberty Bowl victory over Mississippi State 34-7. Fast forward a year and head coach Joey McGuire has led the Red Raiders to a victory over Ole Miss and Lane Kiffin with a final score of 42-25...
Joey McGuire Inks Contract Extension With Texas Tech Football
When Kliff Kingsbury finished his first season at Texas Tech in 2013 at 7-5, Kirby Hocutt and the Athletic Department extended his contract. In hindsight, there wasn't any reason to extend that early, but it was a showing of good faith after a solid start...
Joey McGuire Proves You Can Actually Recruit Football Players to Lubbock
Texas Tech football is recruiting again.
I guess they never stopped, but Joey McGuire and his staff have turned in the most impressive class at Texas Tech since 2011 according to the recruiting metrics. That 2011 class brought the Red Raiders Jakeem Grant, LaRaven Clark, DeAndre Washington, Jace Amaro, and many more...
The Texas Tech Defense Will Be Just Fine in 2023
In the middle of 2022, I was worried about the 2023 Texas Tech defense. Tyree Wilson, Muddy Waters, Adrian Frye, Malik Dunlap, Reggie Pearson, Dadrion Taylor-Demerson, Rayshad Williams, Krishon Merriweather, Tony Bradford, and Jaylon Hutchings were all out of eligibility or potentially leaving this offseason for an opportunity with the NFL.

It’s Not Pretty, But Texas Tech is Winning Basketball Games
The Red Raiders are 6-2 on the season with losses to a ranked Creighton team and a ranked Ohio State team, but the season doesn't seem to be going great. Maybe it's the 18-0 run they gave up to Georgetown before finishing them off or the struggling 35 minutes with Nicholls before finishing them off...
Watch The Live Feed of the Double T Scoreboard Removal
UPDATE:
Texas Tech's Matt Dowdy later clarified that "Due to unforeseen complications, the Double T Scoreboard is now scheduled to be removed between 8-9 p.m."
So, still on December 1st.
Of course, Texas Tech had to have a little fun with the scoreboard...
Tyree Wilson Officially Enters the NFL Draft
Tyree Wilson was really freaking good this season. I think we probably underrated him as a Red Raider, even while giving him high praise. That's just how good he is. He's got all the measurables and production to match up to a first-round NFL draft pick, and that's where he's officially headed...
Texas Tech is Bowl Eligible, But Where Will They Go?
The Big 12 has eight teams currently eligible for the postseason Bowl Extravaganza. That pecking order matters for bowl selections but it also doesn't matter. The Big 12 has automatic tie-ins, but they make exceptions all the time so the third-place team might go to the second-place bowl the second-place might opt for the lower tier to go to a destination and so on and so forth.

What Can You Do With a 14-Foot Stolen Skeleton in Texas?
A wild story is making the rounds out of Austin after a person allegedly stole a 14-foot skeleton out of a front yard in broad daylight.
So many parts to this story and video that baffle me.
A couple of key questions that immediately pop up:
Why not steal the skeleton under the cover of darkness?

Texas Tech Hit With $50,000 Fine. I Thought Public Reprimands Were a Bob Bowlsby Thing?
Put it on Texas Tech's tab, Yormark. And keep the tab open, because I hope Texas Tech gets to rush the field against Baylor and Oklahoma, too.
